Condition

The illustration is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable minor scratches and marks throughout. The gilding is nice. The central arm was previously fitted with a dripped pan which has been now replaced by an electrical fitting. This electrical fitting has been deleted on the illustration of the catalogue. These candelabras were used as lamps. there is a small hole on each dragoon's head which correspond to a missing decorative element, probably a hole for a chain. Very nice model Ready to use
